The purpose of the study was to find out how sustainable development will be taken into account in the national criteria is shown. My presumption was that sustainable development is no longer on display in the new core curriculum as clearly as in the previous one. My research is qualitative. I looked at the core curricula in 2004 and 2014 by theory bounded content analysis. I studied my own subject crafts and values, mission and operational culture in the common part of national core curriculum. I took into examination also the thematic entities from 2004 and the wide-range knowledge from 2014 that integrate all the subjects. I looked into the process of drawing up the documents, their contents and their form in order to find out the way they were drawn and what kind of elements had affected the drawing process. After that I analyzed the values, mission, operational culture, learning environments working methods separately in relation to sustainable development. Then I took under observation the thematic entities and the wide-range knowledge. Finally, I examined crafts and the presence of the sustainable development in it. I found out that sustainable development occurs creditably in the new core curriculum in every aspect of it, in social, cultural, ecological and economical aspect with emphasis on the two first ones and more clearly than in the previous core curriculum. This may depend on the fact that the core curriculum is more precise in general guidance and much more extensive. On the contrary in craft the trend was quite the opposite. Sustainable development and consumer education appear in the core curriculum in 2004 through the whole subject. In the new core curriculum, sustainable development is lost in the excess of all goals. There is a fundamental difference in the core curricula. The document in 2004 is restricted in comparison to his successor. As result the instructions in the new core curriculum are more comprehensive, more detailed and more versatile throughout. And it is significantly more normative.
